Vendor Summary
When you first log into Expense Management, Vendor Summary is your default landing page and provides a summary of expenses by vendor in a Card or Grid view. From this page you can access,
The corporate names associated with the vendor
Invoices received for the given month
Accounts approved for processing
Billing Items & Cost Groups that appeared on the invoice for the given month
Navigating the Vendor Summary in Card View
The Card view is the default view for this page and it shows a clickable summary of accounts, lines, and billing items (BI) information for each of your vendors.
For example, if we click on the Lines count for ATT Wireless, a focused Circuits/Lines/ServiceID report will open and provide us billing details for each of the lines. Click on the Service ID to see what billed specific to that service element, or click on the Invoices count to see the invoices that are being summarized.
To return back to the Vendor Summary page, click on General in the top left corner.
Navigating the Vendor Summary in Grid View
You can toggle to the Grid view to see various summary data per vendor.
